Please don’t add to your anxiety by believing you must do the impossible. None of us are going to turn this ship around in time to keep it from sinking. Give yourself permission to mourn, permission to let go of impossible tasks, and permission to just be, to be one of Earth’s beloved treasures. Let that be enough for a start.
O Great Spirit whose voice I hear in the winds, I come to you as one of your many children. I need your strength and your wisdom. Make me strong not to be superior to my brother, but to be able to fight my greatest enemy: myself.
Chief Dan George
